Re: [diesel_mercedes] Oil Pan skid plate

 

Trish, 
 
    On European 123s, a skid plate was standard.  Nate has one on his 300TD wagon (Euro delivery). 
 
    Try to find one in a p-a-p yard.  Scarce as hen's teeth.  I've never seen one on a 126, but Nate and I are talking about the idea, given how badly worked over most 126 oil pans seem to be. 
 
    Nate put the NEW oil pan on my 300SD this afternoon, with a new gasket.  I've got almost 100 miles on it already and no drippage apparent.

I thought this was a topic recently, but upon a search I was unable to find anything.

Has anyone put on a skid plate to protect their oil pan?
